The corrosion resistance of three commercial Ag-Pd-Cu-Au alloys was estimated in Ringer's and 0.1% Na2S solutions by electrochemical techniques and surface analyses. In Ringer's solution, the three alloys showed high corrosion resistance and there was no significant difference in the anodic polarization characteristics of the three alloys. In the 0.1% Na2S solution, the Alloy A which had the lowest noble metal content (Au + Pd) exhibited the highest anodic reactivity with the largest amount of corrosion product on the alloy surface. It was determined that the Ag-rich phase of Ag-Pd-Cu-Au alloy was preferentially attacked to form Ag2S corrosion product. The polarization resistance data showed that the corrosion rate for Alloy A in 0.1% Na2S solution was determined to be 500 times higher than that in Ringer's solution. The corrosion rate of the alloy in the freely corroded condition can be estimated quantitatively and precisely by measuring the polarization resistance.

The layer-structured oxide cathode for sodium-ion batteries has attracted a widespread attention due to the unique redox properties and the anionic redox activity providing additional capacity. Nevertheless, such excessive oxygen redox reactions will lead to irreversible oxygen release, resulting in a rapid deterioration of the cycling stability. Herein, sulfur ion is successfully introduced to the O3-NaNiMnCuTiWO material through high-temperature quenching, thereby developing a novel NaS-modified O3/P2-NaNiMnCuTiWO composite with extended cycling life.

The in-situ utilization of sulfide to remove the nitrate produced during the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) process can avoid prolonged sludge acclimatization, facilitating the rapid initiation of coupled nitrogen removal processes. However, the understanding of in-situ enhancement on anammox system by sulfide remains unclear. Herein, sulfide (NaS) was introduced as an additional electron donor to remove the nitrate derived from the anammox under varying sulfide/nitrogen (S/N, S-S/NO-N, molar ratio) ratios (0.

The practical application of room-temperature sodium-sulfur (RT Na-S) batteries is severely hindered by inhomogeneous sodium deposition and notorious sodium polysulfides (NaPSs) shuttling. Herein, novel sodium thiotellurate (NaTeS) interfaces are constructed both on the cathode and anode for Na-S batteries to simultaneously address the Na dendritic growth and polysulfides shuttling. On the cathode side, a heterostructural sodium sulfide/sodium telluride embedded in a carbon matrix (NaS/NaTe@C) is rationally designed through a facile carbothermal reaction, where the NaTeS interface will be in situ chemically obtained.

To remove trace cisplatin from aqueous solution, commercial sponges were functionalized by esterification with 3-mercaptopropionic acid, followed by reduction with NaS·9HO or SnCl·2HO. The resulting thiol-functionalized sponges (TFSs), TFS_1 and TFS_2, were tested for the removal of cisplatin (235 μg L) achieving maximum removal of 95.5 ± 0.

Room-temperature sodium-sulfur (RT Na-S) batteries have the drawbacks of the poor shuttle effect of soluble sodium polysulfides (NaPSs) as well as slow sulfur redox kinetics, which result in poor cycling stability and low capacity, seriously affecting their extensive application. Herein, defect engineering is applied to construct rich oxygen vacancies at the interface of a TiO anatase/rutile homojunction (O-TRA) to enhance sulfur affinity and redox reaction kinetics. Combining structural characterizations with electrochemical analysis reveals that O-TRA well alleviates the shuttle effect of NaPSs and precipitates the deposition and diffusion kinetics of NaS.
